The chromed, mirror-finished, PHD BLACK STAR Edition is the most effective instrument in our line-up and handles Hi-Fi Audio to mastering. It has been created for anyone wanting to experience a totally new sound scope.
Speakers emit sounds by moving their diaphragm back and forth. Such vibrations cause an inertia which impacts the diaphragm's own movement and therefore disturbs the waveforms. This often results in a sound that is muffled, slow and lacking quality in the bass range, which is usually fixed by trying to reach a frequency-based balance through several methods.
The solution that PHONON has come up with is to compensate the waveforms that speakers physically cannot replicate, by precisely conveying them before the speakers have actually emitted such sound.
The PHD 1610BL/3010BL/8010BL series are very sensitive independent vibrating instruments which cleverly use the back EMF, normally the cause of muddled sound, as the actual driving power supply. By compensating the disturbed woofer and tweeter's waveforms (both resulting in the delay of each musically essential elements' start), we have succeeded in truly replicating the reality of the waveforms without changing the characteristics of your favorite speakers.
By getting closer to the true waveforms, you will appreciate how the acoustic field and the phase characteristics dramatically improve. Not to mention that by more quickly conveying the sound information, you will also be able to lower the adverse effects of the reflected sounds. By attaching the 8010BL to the woofer, you will also be amazed at the directionality of the super-low frequencies. Finally, by changing the angle of instruments you can also control the acoustic field.
Please attach in parallel the + and - of the cables to the speakers + and - terminals. Please use the dedicated mounts when installing the instruments on top or by the speakers.
